Chapter 1195: God's Dome

With a clatter, the cart slammed into the gravel ahead.

This time, Evan noticed that the carts had a protective spell on their surface that allowed them to easily break through the mud and sand.

No wonder I didn't feel the vibration when I was in it before.

"These cars were horrible, I almost fainted. Just like the road we took when we came down, the elves always made things with cost and no consideration for comfort, and in their eyes, the most important thing was gold, and they were not willing to spend more money on things that they thought were useless. "But it's okay now, when I came here last year with Mr. Zosay's excavation team, we didn't have this railroad, but slid down through a pipe, which was at least three thousand feet above the ground, and it was an absolute nightmare......"

This high-intensity friction between the skin and the ducts is terrifying just to think about.

"The skin rubs against the metal tube?"

"Yes, it was like that at first, but then the objections were so great that the elves came up with a way to put a lot of lube into that narrow sealed pipe, and believe me, it was a nightmare within a nightmare, the body was covered in lubricating fluid rubbing, not to mention the slimy and disgusting feeling, the wizards who used the pipe had to use the bubble head charm to prevent themselves from accidentally drowning in the lubricating fluid. Lavier continued, shuddering, apparently remembering something bad, "Earlier this year, there was a goblin who really choked to death, you know, they were so short that Gringotts installed these railroads here. I've heard that they are reluctant to do this because it adds a lot of costs, so they charge money for using the cart. ”

Evan remembered that on the platform just now, the wizards who were dissatisfied with their cutting in line shouted that they had paid their money.

It turns out that this is the case, the goblins are really stingy to the extreme, and it is not easy to take advantage of them.

"Greedy goblins!" he whispered.

"Yes, but they can still communicate, and as long as it doesn't involve gold, the elves are pretty good creatures. Truth be told, wizards like Mr. Race are much stronger, and as you can see, they have the same strong prejudice against women as those stupid Muggles. Lavier said, furrowing his nose as if remembering something, and did not continue, "Now is not the time to talk about this, let's hurry to the Temple of the Gods." ”

"Don't you have to wait for anyone else?"

"No, the pendulum told me before, he asked me to show you around first, and then go to the obelisk to meet. "Come on, I dare say you'll be blown away." ”

Under her leadership, Evan exited the makeshift platform through a corridor.

The road seems to be a crack in the rock wall, and it is dim inside, but there is no need to worry about falling or getting lost.

Because it was so narrow, Evan walked almost against the walls on either side.

As soon as I came out of the corridor, my eyes suddenly opened up.

Appearing on Aven's face was a quaint blue stone door, carved with ornamentation, surrounded by eight huge circular columns, four hundred feet high, each carved with elaborate reliefs of the pharaohs.

The statue bears the snake-shaped crown characteristic of the pharaoh and is an image of a handsome young man. His hands were clasped around his chest, and unlike the pharaohs with hooks and shackles that Aven had seen before, the statue in front of him saw the young pharaoh holding a scepter in his left hand surrounded by gems and a wand in his right hand.

"This is Ramses II!" whispered Lavier, "and during his reign he was God, at least as powerful as we understand it." Alright, Aven, don't go up those stairs, don't go near the main door, the curse on it hasn't been broken yet, let's go over from that place. ”

She pointed to the right, and Evan saw an entrance open in the wall next to the door.

The wizards built a slope there that could be walked along.

Evan looked up at Ramses II on the pillar again, trying to engrave the young pharaoh's imprint in his mind.

Then he followed Lavier to the crack in the wall.

"In addition to the statues of the gods, there are many sculptures of Ramses II in the ruins of the sun. "Remember, you must speak quietly in front of the statue of Ramses II, and don't say anything disrespectful." ”

"Why? Are you afraid that he won't hear it?"

Evan noticed the expression on Lavier's face, and a somewhat absurd thought popped into his head.

An ancient warlock more than 3,000 years ago, no matter how powerful he was in front of him, even if he was once a spellcaster comparable to a god, now there was nothing left but a monumental statue, but Lavier seemed to be afraid that what he said would be heard.

"I'm afraid of being heard!" said Lavier, with a solemn face, "Ramses II may not be dead, have you forgotten that he is believed to be the owner of the Golden Book of the Sun, which contains the secret ...... of eternal life."

"But Ramses II's tomb is in the Valley of the Kings, and even the mummy has been found, how can he still be alive?!" said Aven, "The Golden Book of the Sun records eternal life, but it is just a legend." ”

"Everybody says so, it's always nice to be careful. Lavier shook his head disapprovingly.

Evan discovers that most wizards are superstitious and follow strange customs that have somehow been passed down.

Just as Neville and Ron still believed that amethyst would bring good luck, that an ominous existence would really exist, and that an axolotl's tail could ward off evil spirits, they also swore to Evan that this was common knowledge in the wizarding world......

Unable to correct Lavier's understanding, and he didn't intend to say anything disrespectful in front of the statue of Ramesses II, Evan and Lavier walked through the narrow gap into the Temple of the Gods, and the next second, he found himself entering a hall that was unimaginably large.

Tens of thousands of torches hung on the walls on both sides, barely illuminating the entire hall.

Evan felt that his eyes were not enough, the hall was full of gods on both sides, although he had long known from Lavier that there were many ancient Egyptian gods here, but the number of what he saw in front of him was still far beyond his imagination, more than two hundred.

Each of them was as tall as the statue of Ramses II seen outside, between four and five hundred feet.

The movements and expressions of the idols are varied, either as animals or as the head of an animal.

At the front of the Dome of the Gods is still a statue of Ramses II.

He was larger than the other idols, seated in the king's solemn expression, his right hand holding his wand across his chest, his left hand holding the handle of the throne, and his clothes were engraved with hieroglyphs and spell runes.

On the ground, patterns and runes made of brown jade were scattered throughout the hall.

As you can see, there are flashes of light on it from time to time......
